ACTION/MOTION: (This language identifies the formal motion to be made by the Council) 
Council to take action on Ordinance No. 16-25 approving the transfer of certain rights-of-way and
roadways generally located along Maricopa Road, west of Apache Road, approximately 3,925 feet on
the north half and 3,178 feet on the south half.
SUMMARY
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The City of Buckeye ("City") is the applicant for this roadway-transfer request. The purpose of this
request is transfer from Maricopa County's jurisdiction a segment of Maricopa Road between Miller Road
and Apache Road. This will allow the Mayfield development to complete the required roadway and
infrastructure improvements.  Specifically with regard to a roadway, Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.)
Section 9-471(O) allows for an abbreviated procedure by mutual consent of the governing bodies of the
county and a municipality if the property transferred is adjacent to the receiving city or town and if each
governing body approves the proposed transfer as a published agenda item at a regular public meeting
of their governing bodies. The transfer of such property is to be treated by the city as if the transferred
property is newly annexed territory, pursuant to A.R.S. Section 9-471(O).
BENEFITS:
This annexation and construction of street improvements by the developer will improve traffic circulation
in the vicinity of the project site. Also transferring this roadway to the City will avoid any challenges for
the City concerning review submittals with the City and construction of this corridor.
FUTURE ACTION:
Upon approval by the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, the Ordinance with legal descriptions will
be recorded with the Maricopa County Recorder's Office.
FINANCIAL IMPACT STATEMENT:
N/A
Items related to a project or facility location must include an attached vicinity map for Council
Review.
